One more data point: It only happens in Mails fetched via nnimap. If I
reproduce with nntp (that means if I send a news articles with 8bit
encoding and UTF-8) everything is displayed correctly.
As stated in the bug report cited by Andreas above nnimap does have a function
(defsubst imap-disable-multibyte ()
"Enable multibyte in the current buffer."
(when (fboundp 'set-buffer-multibyte)
(set-buffer-multibyte nil)))
which is called for every buffer involved (see e.g. imap-open). Might
this be the problem?

Have you ever considered how much text can fit in eighty columns? Given that a
signature typically contains up to four lines of text, this space allows you to
attach a tremendous amount of valuable information to your messages. Seize the
opportunity and don't waste your signature on bullshit that nobody cares about.
